Ahhh McCain youve done it again

Thursday, June 26, 2008

I have a new favourite facebook app: John McCain's Pork Invaders.

Yes, as in this John McCain.

The game (which is awesome for all the wrong reasons) has you doing the following:
"As President, John McCain would exercise the veto pen to restore fiscal responsibility to our federal government. Play the game and help John McCain in his tireless fight against wasteful spending." Well you gotta trust a guy quoted as saying "I'm going to be honest: I know a lot less about economics than I do about military and foreign policy issues. I still need to be educated."

I'm waiting for Barack Obama to counter with Obamaman by the way.

The reason McCain is the subject today is due to The Colbert Report running a competition called Project McCain. "...when Republican Presidential nominee John McCain addressed a crowd in Kenner, Louisiana on June 3, he did so in front of a green screen, thereby issuing a bold challenge to Americans to make him seem more exciting."

The entries so far are hilarious. I've got 2 here for your viewing pleasure.

Awesome

Hypnotic

Incidentally, the previous best Facebook app was the 'Is the Sun burning?' one. Because let's face it, a guy has to know what sort of temperature it'll be when he goes outside.
